Scare me, put my wits on edge.
Fears of the unknown plague a wounded soul,
Hungry, wild thoughts gnaw, threaten to break the mind's equilibrium.
Breathing raggedly, the heart thumps wildly at the doors,
Wet palms, trembling fingers shake a glass of water,
Setting in motion the vibrations at the surface.
Bubbling from within, crosscurrents of feelings
Raising goosebumps,
Frayed nerves reach a boiling point,
Convection currents cause the uppermost calm to sink,
Innermost turmoil bubbles over, spills, scalds the thin skin of emotions
Scarring mind, body and soul!
Years pass by,
Scars darkened by the volcanic lava of emotional outbursts, turn numb
Dead skin gives way to new skin cells
Ugly, old scars buried.
Happiness resonates in a love-starved soul.
Wind chimes ringing in the chambers of the heart
Soulful music ensconces, encompasses, engulfs the body,
Sweet melody whispers in the ear,
Passing by like a flutter in the wind,
A breeze laced with the fragrance of nectar,
drugs me into a soulless sleep.
